I have been watching Give Away of the Day for 5 years and downloaded over a dozen programs. Some good some so-so, and some that I couldn't get to run. Reading the reviews I have to ask, why do so many people have trouble registering the software? If it's truly free just make it free without jumping through hoops.

I installed at the last giveaway,excellent program. They respect your privacy not like other company's who demand too much personal information, who want to KNOW when you last went to the toilet etc etc, thanks Zenama & GOTD.

tommo, You think that by clicking through a Facebook share and download button that they don't already know when you last went to the toilet etc etc?

does the portable version require any specific signup within the giveaway period? Will it require a separate purchase of the license?

Will it also be good for only 1 year?

m,

It's good, for want of a better word, for 400 days. You cannot move it from one computer to another (Portable version) without re activating it again on the new computer .... So not truly portable.

..........................Moderator Comment................................

There's another Steam game available today (Monday 5th Sept) over on the Game Giveaway site called Glow Ball. That's four days in a row we've got games (at least some of the community). This is a first since March 2008 when the Gamegiveaway site went to weekends only :)

The game is limited to 50 licenses and you will need to jump through some hoops (i.e. Facebook, Twitter and join a Steam group). The offer runs for Five days and if you complete all tasks, you can get up to Fifteen entries in total. Seven on the first day and another Two each day until the offer ends on Saturday morning, (10th September 9am GMT).

If you don't like Steam you can also get this game via Desura (which is still trading despite the owners going bust last year). If you don't win a key, but the game still appeals to you, you can get it for £2.74 via Steam or £3.99 from Desura. You may get a Steam key via Desura as well, though not certain at this point.

Glow Ball is a billiard/pool like physics game with some devilishly designed levels. The majority of Steam users who have left reviews have given it a thumbs down, but I personally think, especially for the price, that it's actually quite a good game. The game gets harder as you progress. If you like Billiards and/or Pool with a neon like appearance, you may want to have a try at getting a free key. You can check my review over on the game giveawayoftheday pages HERE.

Good Luck to all who enter

Sue,
Wow. That's a first. I truly hope that you're joking.
